The cooling device for a power source for a ship propulsion device that pumps up cooling water, from which foreign matters with sizes that cause clogging of a cooling water route have been removed, supplies the cooling water to a cooling water passage (30), and discharges the cooling water to outside after cooling a power source (10) includes: a cartridge-type filtration device (40, 73) that is provided at a midpoint of a first water passage (36, 71) in the cooling water route and incorporates a filter (45, 46) for filtrating foreign matters remaining in the cooling water; and a second water passage (38, 72) that is branched from the first water passage and adapted such that a valve member (53) is opened to cause the cooling water to flow in a case in which clogging occurs in the filter.

A filter device for a water-bearing domestic appliance has a flow-through filter housing with waste water inlet, filtered water outlet and filtrate outlet, at least one panel filter and a mounting therefor in the filter housing, wherein the panel filter has a mesh width and an angle to the horizontal, and a filtrate chamber in the filter housing for collecting filtrate. The panel filter, the waste water inlet and the filtered water outlet are arranged relative to one another such that a flow direction for water from the waste water inlet to the filtered water outlet passes through the panel filter. The filtrate chamber is accessible via the filtrate outlet for removing the filtrate from the filtrate chamber, in particular by backwashing. The at least one panel filter is variable in shape to change its mesh width, and/or an angle of the at least one panel filter to the horizontal can be altered by movement of the panel filter, in particular rotation.

The present invention features methods for manufacturing an electrochemical sensor for detecting a diagnostic target oligonucleotide. The methods described herein provide for an electrochemical sensor with a higher level of coverage of the probes on its surface, thus allowing for more sensitive detection of a target oligonucleotide. The methods may feature first mixing disulfide terminated oligonucleotides having a free thiol moiety at the 3′ end with a gold substrate and subsequently introducing to the gold substrate a composition for reducing thiol moieties to cause the oligonucleotides to bind to the surface of the gold substrate. In some embodiments, the method comprises removing excess thiol and oligonucleotides, which may help with non-competitive binding. In some embodiments, the method comprises rinsing the gold substrate with water and drying with nitrogen.

In some examples, a filter assembly may include a filter including a first gasket having a first channel adjacent to a first side of the filter and a second gasket having a second channel adjacent to a second side of the filter. The first gasket and the second gasket may include a beveled surface adjacent to the filter. The first channel and the second channel may include a diameter of from about 0.01 mm to about 0.5 mm. A finger tightening system may securely hold the filter without any leaks.

A filter module for a filter assembly has a primary filter element and a secondary filter element. A water separation interface is provided for discharging water, which has been separated by the primary filter element from a fluid to be filtered, from the primary filter element. A primary filter interface is provided for discharging fluid, which has been filtered by the primary filter element, from the primary filter element. A secondary filter interface is provided for discharging the fluid, which has been filtered by the secondary filter element, from the secondary filter element. The water separation interface, the primary filter interface, and the secondary filter interface are arranged coaxially to a symmetry axis of the filter module. The water separation interface, the primary filter interface, and the secondary filter interface are each designed for outflow of material flows in axial direction of the symmetry axis.

A flow suppression device adapted to be connected to a high pressure fluid system includes an outer flow containment member of a porous and flexible construction. The outer flow containment member has an upstream end and a downstream end opposite the upstream end. The upstream end includes an inlet opening adapted to receive a flow stream of pressurized fluid from the high pressure fluid system and the downstream end being substantially closed. The flow suppression device also includes a primary inner flow containment member of a porous and flexible construction contained within the outer flow containment member. The primary inner flow containment member has an upstream end with an inlet opening adjacent the inlet opening of the outer flow containment member and a downstream end opposite the upstream end of the primary inner flow containment member.
